Hi, I wanted to share some ornaments I created for this month's
Crafty Secrets Linky Party. Last year, we decided to start a new tradition by preserving a Santa's wish list for each of the kids. They filled out their lists last year but I'm just now pulling these together. My only complaint is I wish I had thought of it sooner so we could look back on some of the things my oldest asked for!
I used papers from the Crafty Secrets
Creating with Vintage Christmas Digital Kit as well as the
Retro Christmas Digital Download Printable.
I added each of their names and the year to one side of the ornament...
And attached their Santa wish list to the other.
I added some Martha Stewart glitter and topped it with a bow. It was difficult to capture without a glare but I love how they turned out. I am happy to cherish these as my kids get older. I think we will start making these after Thanksgiving dinner this year since we usually decorate our tree that evening.
Thanks for stopping by!
What a cute and clever idea! You are so right...this would have been a fun project to carry through from early childhood to adulthood. But you got it started now, and I just love the idea! Thanks so much for joining the fun at the Crafty Secrets Linky Challenge and Blog Hop!
